Derek Webb - A Love That's Stronger Than Our Fear Lyrics

What would you do if someone put a gun to your head
And asked you to tell them a lie?
What would you say if you were pushed that way
To betray yourself to keep yourself alive?
Is life worth so much?

There's got to be
A love that's stronger than our fear
Of everything being out of control
Everything being out of control

What would you do if someone would tell you the truth
But only if you tortured them half to death?
Tell me, since when do the means justify the ends
And you build the kingdom using the devil's tools?
Can time be so short?

There's got to be
A love that's stronger than our fear
Of everything being out of control
Everything being out of control

There is a day that's been inaugurated
But has not yet come
That we can proclaim by showing
That there's a better way

There's got to be
A love that's stronger than our fear
Of everything being out of control
Everything being out of control
